[mou-net] Saturday May 12 Old Cedar Bridge

Spent two hours this morning looking for warblers and vireos but was unable to make out anything other than a couple redstarts and a common yellowthroat. I give up and may just wait till fall when perhaps leaves will fall from the trees. Apparently I'm doing something wrong. Brian Sent from

[mou-net] Lapland Longspur Help

I saw what appeared to be a flock of 20 Lapland Longspurs at North Mississippi Regional Park in North Minneapolis. Everything fits except that these guys have mostly black napes, not the rufous most often seen in pics and field guides. Anyone seen this variation before? I did manage to find

Thanks to Matt Dufort I now know that these were indeed Harris Sparrows, not Laplands. Can't believe I missed that one in my Sibley. Brian Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:

[mou-net] Warblers, Sparrows and Swallows Oh My!

Found FOY Black and White, Orange Crowned and Common Yellowthroat Warblers today. Also a probable Golden-Winged. Plus a couple LBJs I didn't recognize and am in no postion to try to name. I also keep hearing a call that sounds like a croaky, maybe slightly defective old fashioned steam

[mou-net] National Wind Map

I'm wondering if this rather cool animation of wind direction and speed in the U.S. has any application in migratory prediction. http://hint.fm/wind/ Currently there seems to be rather helpful (from a northbound migrating birds point of view) northerly wind flow from Texas. Something to think

Encouraging migration forcast here. http://ebird.org/content/ebird/news/birdcast-alert Wind map for Wednesday, 7 March 2012, at 925 mb. The green area indicates a nice area of southerly wind flow that should yield significant bird movement through the Great Plains, Midwest, and Great Lakes

[mou-net] Hawk on I-94 and Dupont 12/30 3:30 PM

On my way home today stopped to look at a hawk perched on a street light at I-94 East and Dupont Ave N. It was either a juvenile Broad-Winged Hawk or a Ferruginous Hawk. And unless it somehow learns English and screams I'm a Ferruginous Hawk!, while wearing a placard indicating so, there is

Re: [mou-net] [mnbird] Hawk on I-94 and Dupont 12/30 3:30 PM

Thanks all. Am rather embarrassed that I didn't stop to consider the time of year. That and I could not find a single image of totally white breasted red tail. Ill think harder next time. Brian From: birddud...@hotmail.com To: mnb...@lists.mnbird.net; mou-net@lists.umn.edu Date: Fri, 30 Dec

[mou-net] Townsend's Solitaire at CNC 12/24

Saw the Solitaire on 12/24 at Carpenter Nature Center around 2:00. It was above the first bench past the observation point on the Savanna Trail. It was the most helpful bird. I heard its call as it perched in the same spot roughly 15 feet off the ground for maybe one minute, giving me a

Upsetting to hear this again. Does anyone have any idea why they are being driven this far south and in such poor condition? Brian Date: Fri, 2 Dec 2011 22:46:32 -0600 From: fgos...@gmail.com Subject: [mou-net] Snowy Owl To: MOU-NET@LISTS.UMN.EDU Located another Snowy Owl South of

I believe they do take-out in the winter. Been seeing a lot of Robins lately. Acting sorta strangely. Very vocal and social. Brian Date: Sat, 5 Nov 2011 08:50:44 -0500 From: cher...@burgmeierconsulting.com Subject: [mou-net] Robins To: MOU-NET@LISTS.UMN.EDU Some years I will see them

Re: [mou-net] eBird

eBird is an amazing tool that all should think about using and contributing to. There are also google eBird aps you can add to your browser home page to show recent sightings in any area of the country you may be interested in. For example, I bird often at Old Cedar Bridge and have my home

Re: [mou-net] Need 11 more for year, plz help

Thanks for all the responses! Couple of notes. I use eBird several times a day and submit all my sightings. It is an amazing tool. I visit Old Cedar bridge at least a couple times a week and have had good luck there. Not so much luck with some of the water birds though as I don't own a

[mou-net] Saturday birding frustration

Started the day out at Old Cedar Bridge. Saw nothing new or exciting. Yesterday someone reported seeing kinglets, grebes, Nelsons Sparrow and a dozen different warblers. Then went to Veterans Memorial Park in Richfield and again saw nothing much. Leaving the park I get a needs alert posted
